    NO SUNROOF 318i sedan - 5 speed!

    Never seen one myself before, but here it is.

    1991 318i 4 door, 5 speed, white. Black/grey cloth interior - door panels are in excellent shape, rear seat is too. Front seats have covers on them - for obvious reasons.

    NEW:
    Spark plugs, thermostat

    NEEDS:
    -Four tires - these ones be bald.
    -Gasket set - valve cover gasket messy. May as well do all of them - at least, I would.
    -Suspension is getting spongy - struts are in its future.
    -Exhaust has leak - sounds ricey - yesssss.

    That said, I have every intention of putting the car in perfect running order - provided that's what someone is looking for.

    Here's what I mean - if you want the car as is, running, needing the above work, I'll take $1600 OBO picked up. I'll deliver, but you pay travel costs (gas, return travel, etc.)

    OR....

    I build to suit. You want H&R race with bilsteins? Sure! The price goes up accordingly. You pay for the cost of the parts, plus some labor, and bam! car is delivered with suspension of your choice. Already have the parts but don't have time to put them on yourself? Send them my way! I'll put them on and just add a few bucks for the time spent. Got your own wheels/tires? Fine - I'll leave these on, and you can swap them over.

    Want it sealed, reliable, quiet, and ready to pass inspection? I can do that! I'll tear the head off and replace all the gaskets, clean everything up - heck, I'll get the valve cover and manifolds powdercoated if you want - just pay the cost :)

    Or just buy it as is and do whatever you want to it. You decide!

    I'm swapping the steel wheels on there for bottlecaps, unless someone just HAS to have the steelies, then the price is less negotiable. I put a bottlecap, a weave, and two steelies on the car so you can see how she'd look with each of the different sets of wheels. The weaves I have are rashed but decent, I've got more than enough bottlecaps, and I really want to keep the steelies.

    On to the pics...

        was this car for sale on craigslist NH about 8 months back?

        edit: apparently it isn't....

        saw one with the same color and condition for $500.00 but with a faulty isv and a bad hood latch.

          This looks like it needs some love...big love!
          The difference between porcupines and BMWs is that porcupines have the pricks on the outside!

            Nah, she's actually really solid. I figure if I put a full gasket set on it, new springs/shocks, and four new tires, I'd be out roughly $1000. The car needs nothing else, IMO. So would you pay $2500 for a 318i w/o sunroof with four brand new tires, H&R race or sports, bilstein sports, and a full headgasket-up set? :)
